The same Trinamool Congress (TMC) MP Mahua Moitra said that now she came to know why Baba Ramdev ran away from Ramlila Maidan in the guise of women. Andhra Pradesh Mahila Samakhya also lodged a protest against Baba Ramdev's statement. On the other hand, District Mahila Congress protested against Baba Ramdev in Chandrapur, Maharashtra. In front of the collector's office, Mahila Congress workers protested against Baba Ramdev's statement and demanded an apology from him. Due to the protest, the activists warned that if Ramdev does not apologize, then there will be an intense movement. 

Yoga guru Baba Ramdev attended a yoga camp organized in Thane, Maharashtra. Addressing the women here, he had said- 'The women present in the program had brought sarees in their bags. The morning yoga program started. After that, the afternoon started. No problem, go home and wear it.' He further said, 'You look good even in a saree, you look good in a salwar suit and you look good even if you don't wear anything like me. Who used to dress the children earlier? Today children are made to wear 5-5 layers of clothes.' Amruta Fadnavis, wife of Maharashtra's Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, was also present in the program.
